At that time, it did not seem that there was <br />a need to contemplate allowing a secondary ground sign in the Employment Districts since they <br />are not generally oriented toward retail uses sought out by the general public. However, the City <br />has had a couple inquiries over the past few years about the potential of a secondary ground sign <br />that were not possible without the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit due to the limitation of <br />one (1) permanent ground sign per parcel, regardless of the number of road frontages. Staff <br />reviewed the request in further detail with the Commission and recommended approval. <br />Citizen Input <br />Commissioner Nosan questioned the difference between the City's Business and Employment <br />Districts. <br />City Planner Anderson described the differences between the two zoning districts as being a <br />place to work versus a place to shop. <br />Motion by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner Nosan, to close the public <br />hearing. <br />Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners Anderson, Nosan, Brauer, <br />Surma, and VanScoy. Voting No: None. Absent: None. <br />Chairperson Bauer closed the public hearing closed at 8:38 p.m. <br />Commission Business <br />Planning Commission/December 1, 2016 <br />Page 10 of 14 <br />
